Factors to Consider

A handset gives the attendant complete control over all the battery-powered functions - raising and lowering, reclining and the Care Raiser.
The reclined position gives full access for the carer to most parts of the body and is very comfortable for the resident.
The shower chair can be driven straight in over most standard toilets.
A safety strap provides security.
